In preparing graduates to cater demands in industry, 21st Century Skills has been embedded in curriculum. To develop the 21st Century Skills among electrical engineering students, Project-Based Learning (PjBL) has been introduced to the electrical engineering students in System Modelling and Analysis Course. Previously, students are given exercises taken from textbooks and other references only. When PjBL is implemented, it contributes to introducing students with real-world problem setting and empowering students’ cognitive abilities. This paper discusses how the real-world problem is developed for the System Modelling and Analysis Course and how PjBL is implemented in the course. Jigsaw was used with the implementation of PjBL to introduce cooperative classrooms and to improve students’ social skills. The real-world problem developed in this PjBL is the ship-to-shore (STS) crane system. The implementation impact was discussed based on students’ reflection and the Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) achievements. Overall CLOs achievement were above the key performance indicator. In addition, students gave positive feedback on this implementation. In conclusion, PjBL can be implemented to improve self-regulated learning among the students in order to supply them with the 21st Learning Skills. |
